How to read/convert huge(about 400MB) Binary files(.dat) to tdms

[odessy27]

Hi all, I am trying to read huge binary files of about 400MB size using binary read function, but its giving me "Not enough memory" error. It looks like the one of the way I can read the file is to read the data in chunks but i don't know how to split a binary file or read the chunks of data at a time from a binary file. Any ideas?

You can read a small chunk of data in a binary file by writing a number to the "count" terminal of the binary read VI.  You can then put those chunks into a TDMS file.

hi,

     you can follow Scott's step also. another way of doing this is you can split the data file into small small files,see the google to do it.

then read the file one by one and put in to save as TDMS format. ..
